What Time is ‘The Husbands of River Song’ Doctor Who Christmas Special on BBC One?

Because the BBC always seems to like to keep things a secret when it comes to letting us know when and what time TV shows will air, some people may still not know what time ‘The Husbands of River Song‘ Doctor Who Christmas special is airing on BBC One on Christmas Day?

It will air on Christmas Day at 5:15pm. Yes, early for a show that is so popular. But, as BBC One has discovered over the years, it is also prime time for families sitting down together, as it’s right after they have eaten their Christmas dinner and so are suitably stuffed and ready for a bit of entertainment.

‘The Husbands of River Song‘ will, of course, give us the return of Alex Kingston as River Song, which I think most Doctor Who fans are looking forward to. It will also be the first time she plays opposite Peter Capaldi‘s Doctor, so there are bound to be some fun scenes between the two of them. Greg Davies and Matt Lucas also guest star.

So, gear yourself up for a day of eating everything within reach, as well as another fabulous Doctor Who Christmas special.
